I ain't got no fun todayIt's just like yesterday, oh yeahOnly different shades of greyI'm bored right out of my skullI'd have to get high just to be
dullI'm institutionalMy TV screen spins around and aroundAnd around and around

I need a sideshowSome kinda creepshowThey ran the circus out of townBut the ring
master said "Boy, you canstick around"

I pay to see all the freaksSome finger lickin' chicken-eating geekHey, that sounds cool to meI just want to step insideI want a scary ride, oh yeahSee Jeckyll turn to HydeI fell my head spinnin' round and aroundAnd around and around

I need a sideshow, oh yeahSome kinda creepshow, oh
yeahI just want someplace to go, oh yeahI tried to be the circus clownBut even my monkey wouldn't hang around

And the hunchback midget and histwisted friendsOffer me
a world of thrills that never end

I need a sideshowSome kind of freaky show, oh yeahDown where the neon glowsJust like a psychedelic videoOr a 24 hour party, go go goNot
a gozio, noI need a sideshowMy private sideshow

Sign upon the bloody lineA drop of yours, a drop of mineNothing's freeEternallyNothing's free

From your
conscience orFree from the consequenceFree to sin and deathFree till your final breathNothing's freeFree from the claws and flaws of your familyFree from obedient lifeYou're cut like a double-edged knifeNothing's free, nothing's freeOh, you pay me

Free to ignore the bore of authorityFree to spit in the faceBe the winningest rat
in the race tillJudgement DayThen nothing's freeBow to me if you wanna be freeFree from life, come die with me

And when we're dead it's for eternityCome on
little one and dance in the fireThe heat's getting close and the flame'sgetting higherWhen the music's over there's a hushin the choirNothing's freeWhen
the trumpets sound and his lightis all aroundAnd the saints all raise from the gravesin the groundWe'll be going way downtownWay downtown

Lost in America

Bad Place Alone

I'm a creature of the streetAnd I rip off all the moneyI was kicked in the teethShoved face first through a windowI got a gangland nameAnd a teardrop tattooed
eyeThey call me Little Caesar in the brotherhoodof crimeI know about the painDyin' in an alley with anair-conditioned brainI know, it's for realFlatlined in an
ambulanceWithout a pulse to feel

CHORUSHey blood brother, you're one of our ownYou're as sharp as a razorAnd as hard as a stoneHey blood brother, you're bad
to the boneYou're a natural killerIn a bad place alone

They call me Smoky JoeAnd I'm as thin as a coroner's needleI got a pocket full of rocksMan, I shake
like a cold chihuahuaI got a runny noseAnd a road map on my armI blew my gig pokin' 'round the galleryWith someone else's rigI know, I understandI watch my body
hauled offBy the local garbage man

Don't call my nameDon't brush my cheek like thatI curse the
day that I found youDon't touch my skinDon't dance around like thatI feel damnation all around youAnd so I raise my voice to HeavenPlease hide me in some holy placeProtect my soul, I'm only human

I walk the streets aloneOn feeble bones I rideMy sins are etched in stoneI got no place to hideWell, I was unshakableIn what I did believeI feel so
breakableBut have I been deceived

You showed me your paradiseAnd your carnival of soulsBut my heart keeps telling meThat ain't the place to goWell, I'm not
invincibleSo I want you to leaveWell, I'm so convincibleBut have I been deceived

CHORUSI take your words and try them onYeah, it's a perfect fit, boyYou
tell me one size fits us allYeah, like an old straightjacketWell, tell me why I'm so afraidAll my words are spokenAll my words are spokenAll my words are spokenIn a stolen
prayer

I remember yesterdayWhen things were black and whiteNever thought I'd get confusedOn what was wrong and rightWell, I'm not unbreakableWith armour on my
skinWell, it's not unthinkableI could be fooled again

CHORUS

You steal another minute from my lifeYou cut a little deeper with your knifeYou steal a little
breath from my airAnd you don't careAnd even thought I'm chokin'All my words are spoken

I take your words and try them onYeah, it's a perfect fit, boyYou
tell me one size fits us allYeah, like an old straightjacketTake this world and try it onMan, you're lookin' good boyStick your neck out on the blockSo you won't miss
nothingStretch your finger, grab your hairDon't you feel like screamingFeel the blood rush from your veinsNow you're a perfect zombieNow I'm on my knees

When I'm all alone - UnholyWith your thoughts of pain - UnholyI
can break on through - UnholyWith just an ounce of faith - Unholy

You're shaking in your bootsBecause it's Judgement DayI'll get my just rewardsAnd you'll have
your hell to payThere's no time to throw out the lifeline

CHORUS

Lullaby

I was the boy who said all of my prayersLaid my clean face on the pillowTucked in real tight, so safe and secureThrough the nightI heard a noise, it was probably
nothingIt pulled me right out of a dreamIf I knew it was youI'd have jumped out of bed with a scream

I am the one who growls in your closetI am the one who lives under your
bed

CHORUSGet down - back where you startedGet down - back into hellYour black soul, you know you'reblack heartedI smell your sulfurous smell

All of my
things that I play with in daylightYou turn into monsters at nightMy toys were my friendsUntil you taught them all how to bite

I was the boy who said all of my
prayersLaid my clean face on the pillowTucked in real tight, so safe and secureThrough the night

It's Me

You took a first-class trip to ParisYou danced in the streets of SpainYou followed the sun to Rio de JaneiroCuz you got so sick and tired of theLondon rainBut honey,
late at nightWhen you close your tires eyesYou'll be thereAnd I'll be hereAnd one of us will cry

You played your cards, you felt the sorrowCuz
all that dealer dealt was painBut baby, where you gonna play tomorrowThe stakes were too damn highAnd now, you're broke againYou can trip around till all yourmoney's
blownBut who's the man that'll take you inWhen all your luck is gone

And me, I'm sitting hereNothing much has changedYou broke my heart to pieces,
babeBut that's nothing strangeWell, I ain't angryThat's all come and goneMy arms are still open wide girlTo catch you when you fall

And if someday you
realizeJust where you belongI'm the man that'll take you inWhen all your luck's goneIt's me, it's me

You offer me the world and all its wealthAll for myselfYou promised me a life eternallyAnd drink to my healthI may seem only
half-gluedBut I can see right through you

CHORUSBurn it up, burn it downBurn this sucker to the groundOh yeah, oh yeahGoing, going, going, goneThere's a party
going on

Do you think I don't know who you areA fallen starWhen I feel my soul scream out at nightI know you're not farYou need a better disguiseThis one
won't win any prize

CHORUS

Cleansed by fire, cleansed by fireI may seem only half-gluedBut I can see right through you

What about darkWhat about lightWhat about wrongWhat about rightWhat about deathWhat about sinWhat about the web you're trying to spin

What about truthWhat about lifeWhat about gloryWhat about ChristWhat about peaceWhat about loveWhat about faith in God aboveWhat about warWhat about hellWhat if I stumbleWhat if I fellWhat about bloodWhat about greedAnd all of these things you're offering me

Yeah, what about me, little meYou lose and I winYou couldn't suck me inIt's over, you have no powerYou're lostAnd I'm foundAnd I'm Heaven boundGo back to where you belongTo where you fellGo to hell
